Technically an adverb is and adj. of a verb, but I said show me your sky without any adj. I've used an adverbial phrase show how the hours move, but since I didn't say no adverbs, I'm going to let it pass for an attempt, anyway.

clouds ring horizon
firmament brightens daylight
the hours grow at crawl

I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.
